1 Bed Flat, Spencer Way, E1

The area

A spacious, bright and very well presented one bedroom flat set on the second floor of a secure, low-rise modern development is available to rent on the 1st August.

The property is conveniently located with easy access to the City and Canary Wharf, and is only two minutes’ walk from both the Shadwell DLR and the Shadwell Overground stations, and from reliable bus routes into the City and West End. Spencer Way provides a wealth of local amenities and good access to the A11, A12 and A13 roads for swift links out of London.

The property

The flat, east-facing and located on the quietest side of the building overlooking the communal gardens, has been loved and lived in by the landlord since the building’s completion and has a truly relaxing and zen-like feel to it.

The property has recently undergone partial renovation and features brand new 60-40 fridge-freezer and full-size dishwasher, and a full-size washing machine. The kitchen has ample storage space, a spacious working top and a foldable breakfast/bar table as an add-on to a six-seat dining table positioned in the living room.

The large living room receives abundant light all day through two windows and a door-window providing access to the balcony. The seating area features a comfortable and handy, easy to use three-seater sofa bed.

The bedroom’s light colour wood furniture is inspired by Japanese interiors and features a king-size platform tatami bed with a premium quality six-inch tall futon and a brand-new memory foam topper. The wardrobe is tall and spacious and has two large sliding doors. Additional storage is provided by a tall chest of drawers, as well as a metal coat hanger and two shoe racks conveniently positioned in a cupboard near the flat’s entrance door.
